about bloody time. Is this just because their cheap overseas labour has been cut off?

Unlikely, as that was a Level III situation, not Level I.

I think this is a good thing. I see L1 as the “application for admission”. The real test starts with Level 2.

I think this will do just as good a job of weeding out the non-qualified as going to the giant event center, but with a lot less headache for both candidate and CFAI.

One modicum of change in the right direction. Now it’s time the members, when are CFA members going to revolt against the extortion to pay member dues.
